• •Users can granularly control dark mode settings, applying it to specific menus like the library while keeping notebooks light.
• •The update also adds Smart Shapes and a 'hold-to-snap' tool for notebooks, enhancing graphical note-taking capabilities on the Scribe.

TL;DR

• •Public opinion on AI is sharply declining, contrasting with expert optimism.
• •Recent acts of violence, though condemned, are accompanied by online support indicating growing resentment.
• •AI's messaging focuses on existential risks or job displacement, failing to address everyday concerns.

TL;DR

• •White House memo alleges China is conducting “industrial-scale” theft of US AI technology.
• •The method, called “distillation”, involves copying US-developed AI without direct code access.
• •The US plans to share threat intelligence, coordinate defenses, and explore accountability measures.

TL;DR

• •AI is increasingly involved in warfare, but 'human-in-the-loop' oversight may be ineffective.
• •The US government is negotiating access to Anthropic’s potentially dangerous AI model, Mythos.

TL;DR

• •A growing gap exists between AI experts' optimism and public concerns about AI.
• •Public anxiety centers around job security, cost of living, and societal impact, not existential risk.
• •The disconnect is fueling increasingly negative sentiment, even manifesting in online support for disruptive actions.
